J-

So great seeing you out there. Blue Rush was just a BEAST. I just missed your last run Saturday evening. I was talking to MC69 and he said you went over to make a pass. Heck, I broke out into a full run but just when I was going by the stands I heard you rip one off down the track... Bummer, wanted to get some good footage but you posted your run above so AWESOME !!!

Had a great time at the Fest. You rock !

*Mindz* · 04-19-2011, 09:22 PM

Thanks Bruce. If I had known, I would have made one more trip. I still don't have a flawless run to see what I can trap. I missed third on most of my runs including the one in the video. Next time I'll be prepared. Need to get hendrix or gforce to sponsor me with some axles...

*Mindz* · 04-20-2011, 12:18 PM

Let me know when the TNT's are. I might be able to convince Wifey about it

4thGen427CI · 04-20-2011, 12:33 PM

Mindz was this your first time out ever on the drag strip? Or first time out in the camaro? I honestly think you did a lot better than my first time at the drag strip

I missed 3rd a lot, but its an easy rhythm to get down

keep at it chief!

*Mindz* · 04-20-2011, 12:54 PM

First time at a drag strip in any car. I wasn't as nervous as I thought, but 2-3 shift is about 60% when I'm going for speed. =)

Your car is beautiful. I love the hood. Im on the fence on which one to get for mine. Its either your hood. slp ram air hood or the Seibon carbonfiber hood with the four vents on each side? Did you have your hood painted to look like carbonfiber in the center?

Nope, it's a real Carbon Fiber Blister.

It's his car shown on their web page too.

*Mindz* · 05-23-2011, 08:51 PM

Thanks Paul.

The hood is fiberglass on the sides, but the scoop and center of the hood is true carbon fiber. They masked it off and shot clear over the whole hood, leaving a carbon fiber stripe. My trunk is the same way. =)

*Mindz* · 05-23-2011, 08:59 PM

So I went to a photoshoot over the weekend up in the north bay at a place called Battery Mendell. I'm going to make a post with all the pictures, but here are the ones that include my car.

NOTE: Photos are untouched, so don't mind the bad quality. =)
